update - 31st Aug 2011 - Booking for the event is now open, and I will be doing a Penny Black themed Christmas card class .........lots of sparkle... :)

some more makes

 a few more bits to show you in today's post, first of which are some 2 - 5 - 7 - 10 favour boxes, done in a butterfly theme.. the original tutorial you can find HERE.

these boxes are really easy to put together and lend themselves to decorating for all seasons, so I am sure I will be making more of them.. 

here are some closeup photos, and I used the nestabilities beyond the edge technique on them too..

 

next is a wedding card made with last year's Lily of the Valley Wedding / Occasions release..

you can find the stamp here, and the punch used is an EK success one. the partial cuttlebug embossing was done with a hallmark / country companions embossing folder I think it was (a recent release from last few months)

here are some closeups to show the embossing

and the Marianne Creatables leaf / branch die.

 my last one to share is a baby card made with a Funky Kits' Sugar Nellie Stamp called Pringle.. so cute for children's birthdays or baby birthdays even...

 

the lettering on this one is cut out using a Quickutz alphabet called moxie - the first alphabet dies I ever bought about 5 yrs ago!! that seems like ages now (!!)

and another closeup to show the nestabilites beyond the edge.
